The Structure of the Endocrine Pancreas,ons, the head, the body and the tail. It develops from two outgrowths (diverticula) of the embryonic duodenum, one of which forms most of the head region while the other forms the remainder of the organ. These endodermal outgrowths fuse to form a typical exocrine gland connected by ducts to the gut.

Insulin was first crystallised in 1926 by J.J. Abel and at that time there was great controversy as to whether the crysta

Insulin Action,ve been made in our understanding of the mechanism of action of insulin. These advances began in the early 1970s when it was established that the initial event in the action of insulin was its interaction with specific receptors on the plasma membrane of the target cell. This interaction has been de

Glucagon,nitial hyperglycaemic response when injected into man. However, it was not until the 1950s that the peptide hormone glucagon was purified and its primary structure determined. The existence of purified glucagon made it possible to study in great detail the chemistry and mechanism of action of this h

The major component with the growth hormone release-inhibiting activity was isolated, characterised and named somatostatin.
